Lovely! That pearl looks really really good! I like the insert as well. The red hand on the sub with the negative date disc is excellent! I have a plan or this now. Thanks for fighting the good fight Thomas!
More updated pics. The watch is now sold, but I have learned a lot and I know I will be able to build another one some day soon I hope.
Just look at that end link fit with gen bars
Oh my! That date wheel is very cool. I can see a fantasy blackout submariner in the works. Day-Black super lume on dial and hands and no cyclops with double AR crystal and blackened pearl. I do concur with the white date disc being traditional and suiting the look, specially when trying to get "that look". Talk to us about these date discs and possibly some sterile super lumed dials Thomas. TC you rock!
Indeed Nanuq, indeed.
I forgot to add, an Athaya big crown will definitely match the bulky new case.
I may have a case that this could be built with.
The non lume pearl ceramic insert would be awesome. Like a GMT insert with no GMT numerals.

I'm thinking HelenaRu sterile Bond gilt dial and matching hands, domed sapphire crystal, BP case minus the crown guards and make sure everything's water tight. The insert still eludes me. I would love to have the same insert but where to source it from?
